Sadly this week’s show was not actually live, due to some serious server issues over at TalkShoe, so Stu, Lewis, Chris and Bart hopped on Skype to record the episode. It did feel weird not having our audience but we muddled through.

As you’ll hear we had some audio issues this week, Garageband crashed on me during the recording so we had to use one of the panel’s skype recordings!

Hope you enjoy the show, links for this episode can be found on our delicious tag

First of all, I’d like to say a massive sorry for the late release of this show. My excuse is simple, I’ve been ill this week and also had some problems encoding the file, which were rather frustrating.

This week’s panel consists of Stu Helm, Lewis King, Rob Hanson, Bart Busschots and Aaron Dyer. We mostly talk about what made the launch of the iPhone 3G a raving disaster in the UK and US and talk about some of the new apps available for iPhone / iPod Touch owners in the App Store

Hi all, hope you’re all excited about the iPhone 3G launch on Friday 11th July (tomorow as I write this). I just wanted to write a quick post to let you know what’s happening with live coverage from an IMP point of view.

I personally will try to stream from about 6am GMT from the o2 store in Leeds, if I can get wifi etc, but I’d also like to mention our friend from the Apple Review Cast, John Meyer, who is in New York and will be streaming from 2am EST over at www.mogulus.com/applereviewcast he and his cohorts will also be doing a giveaway of 20 iPhone 3G invisible shields, so definately worth a look.

I’ve asked the rest of the team to update this post if they are going to be doing any streaming, so watch this spot!
